RE: RMX and IP hijacking

["Hallam-Baker, Phillip" <pbaker@verisign.com>]

I followed up the URI listed in the bounce message. That is the reason it
gives for the listing.

There is something wierd going on with that blacklist, one of their
blacklists is blacklisting my IP address 66.31.xx.xx for being 'in'
127.0.0.10 / 32

I don't know if my IP is being blacklisted because their search algorithm is
broken or they use the notation /32 to mean 2^32 addresses rather than just
one.


So is Dean still convinced that Spam is not a problem?
